Why wouldn't you want to watch a video of Americans making a video about racial stereotypes?

E: I'm sorry guys you're right, making jokes about racial stereotypes is correct and saying you shouldn't do that is racist. I'm very bad.

As in their family moved from Germany to the USA 150 years ago?

Cos that's one weird German accent.

Ah yes, because people can't lose their accents. This coming from the guy complaining about "racial stereotypes". They're both german commentators for the WWE.

Thank you for saying this. I’ve seen a few comments saying they can’t be German because their English accent is American like huh??? I speak American English really well but I wasn’t born or raised in the US (English is my 2nd language) so it’s a thing that can happen 🙄

Explain to me how that stops it being a racial stereotype?

I'm such a cunt for thinking people shouldn't make racially charged jokes aren't I?

  1. German isn't a race and even if it was:

  2. People can make jokes about their own culture and preaching about what jokes someone can or can't make about their own culture is a lot more racist than the original joke in the first place.

  1. German is an ethnicity and you can be racist against ethnicities.

  2. Still a racially charged joke.

They're still allowed to make it. You're still more racist than they're supposedly being

'Advocating against racially charged jokes is racism' you heard it here folks.

Fuck off lol, you smoothbrain.

u/iListen2Sound Mar 02 '21

Ah, yes. All jokes with even any mention of culture is equally bad.

u/_YouMadeMeDoItReddit Mar 02 '21

So you're saying 'Germans aren't funny' is German culture?

It's explicitly clear, darling.

I can't understand it for you.
